Plant Seeds: Outdoors After Frost or Indoors Weeks Before Last Frost
All multiple orders of the same seed are put in the same bag. For example if you order 500 beefsteak tomato seeds x 3 then 1500 seeds will be put in the same bag. We do not send out 3 individual bags with 500 in each. This goes for all seeds unless they are listings of different seeds
Mixed Annual Phlox is a showy annual which is native to Texas and the southeastern U.S. It comes in a mix of pink, red, rose, purple & white. In the right conditions, it will re-sow itself from year to year. Plant it in the front of the border or in wildflower mixtures. Sowing: Direct sow Drummond's phlox seeds in late fall, planting just below the surface of the soil. For spring planting, mix the seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 60 days before planting. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination. This seed can also be started indoors 6-8 weeks before planting in the spring; the best temperature for germination is 65 degrees F. Growing: Water annual phlox seedlings until they become established. To encourage branching, pinch back the tips as they grow. Mature plants tolerate occasional drought, though they prefer moist soil and will benefit from watering in dry weather. Deadhead for increased blooming. If seeds are not required, cut the plant back after blooming has finished. This plant often reseeds itself, and is highly attractive to bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. It makes an excellent ground cover, border plant, or addition to a rock garden.
